(54) Buffer arrangement for damping shocks between means of transport, loading and unloading platforms, warehouse entrances and the like


(57) Shock-damping buffer arrangement for vehicles on loading stations comprising one or more cylindrical bumpers (10;110) pivoted according to a horizontal axis (X) on a rigid frame (1;100;200), in which:
  • the bumpers (10;110;210) are made of a material of approximately 50 Shore D or greater hardness;
  • between at least one of the bumpers and the frame there are provided elastically deformable means (16,17;161,162,163,164;214) which, in the event of a shock, cause the bumpers to temporarily displace with respect to the frame in a direction (A) that is substantially perpendicular to the pivoting axis of the same bumpers.
